Racing Writer's Podcast: Will Rodgers

Perhaps you’ve heard of Will Rodgers, the young driver praised by Kevin Harvick after the two competed against one another in a K&N West race. If you haven’t, here is your chance to learn more about Will as he works his way up the NASCAR ladder.

In this podcast episode, you’ll hear where Rodgers is from and grew up, which leads into a conversation about the love of racing in Hawaii. Rodgers also talks about whether it’s hard not racing every weekend as a younger driver; working for veteran Ken Schrader, the differences between K&N and ARCA, and getting the Kevin Harvick bump in attention.
